[2F] Complete renovation completed October 2024 Guest setter Ryohei Kameyama, Akira Nagasako, Ryoga Tsukada

Beta Climbing Gym | Full Renewal

2nd floor full renewal completed

We invited three guest setters, Kameyama Ryohei, Tsukada Ryoga, and Nagasako Mei, and carried out a full renewal of the 2nd floor from October 22nd to 23rd.

This is Kameyama’s first time doing a set at BETA, and it’s a rare opportunity to experience Kameyama’s problems in the Kanto region. He has also made some low-grade problems, so I hope you can experience the Kameyama world!
I recommend the problems at around level 4, which require a lot of brainpower!

I don’t know how many times Tsukada has done BETA (lol).
The more challenging problems may stand out, but the roof problems are relatively easy(?), so I hope even those who are not good at them will try them out!

Nagasako, who was well-received last time for his set on the first floor, made 110-degree and 120-degree problems, with the roof as the main focus.
These problems have relatively large movements, so those who are not used to them may find them difficult, but let’s do our best!

These are mainly low-grade problems, but there are also Rei-kun and Yusei problems.
Have fun!

Ryohei Kameyama

I have offered him many offers before, and this time I was finally able to ask him.

Kameyama-san is an active participant in competitions such as the Japan Cup and Japan Tour, and has also competed in the World Cup.

However, I, Shun, think of him more as a rock climber.

Recently, he has been challenging Burden of Dreams (V17) and was the third climber of Floatin (V16) at Mizugaki, so he is extremely strong.

He himself has commented that “I’m good at and like steep slopes,” and this time he is one of the climbers who is perfect for the second floor set.

He also said that he would like to continue challenging overseas boulders, including Burden, so he is a climber to look forward to in the future.

Please enjoy Ryohei Kameyama’s problems, which are quite rare in the Kanto region!

Mei Nagasako

This is Mei Nagasako, who we invited to the set on the first floor about 10 months ago!

After becoming independent, she is a popular setter who seems to set in various places both domestically and internationally.
In the previous set, we created the most difficult levels for each grade (just by chance. Really just by chance),
and I think that left a strong impression on you.
I hope they wreaked havoc on the second floor too.
I hope you enjoy these tough challenges!

Tsukada Ryoga Tsukada

You may be familiar with him from Beta.

He may have a strong image as a competitive player, but he has an incredibly strong grip and is a good match for Beta.
Of course, he is also good at delicate positioning.
I’m sure many people have struggled with Ryoga’s problems, so I hope he will give you another hard time next time!

Shun really likes Ryoga’s slabs, so next time I’d like to invite him to the first floor…

March 29, 2023 2F Full Renewal The END


Late report. The full renovation of the 2nd floor was completed at the end of March.
Beta’s Shun, Kite, and 4 guests set it up. I think it has become a unique and worthwhile wall!
Please enjoy!

I would like to introduce four guest setters, Mr. Naoki Shimatani, Mr. Yuya Kitae, Mr. Ryoga Tsukada, and Mr. Tomohiro Motegi.
Introduction: Kite


Naoki Shimatani
Needless to say, the person in charge of Rokudo’s holding power has come! As I had envisioned, they created a number of challenges that emphasized maintenance, but they also showed us their strength to climb the two most difficult stages of 120° with one try.


Ryoga Tsukada
Bouldering Japan Tour 2021 1st place
Bouldering Japan Cup 2022 Semifinalist

We invited this person who is in great demand as a setter in competitions, advanced to the BJC semi-finals as a player, and is strong in both making and climbing!
Many of you may have known about his bad legs in the previous 1F set. There are a lot of challenges that can’t be climbed if you can’t step on this time. If you climb, your legs will surely improve!


Tomohiro Motegi
I invited this person who had an impression of competitive subjects such as Marboo, TSS, and Young Gun. I get the impression that there are many challenges in Beta where his physicality, which is his characteristic, becomes important. There are many assignments for comfortable moves, so if you want to climb hard, you may want to try it!


Yuya Kitae
Former Deputy Manager of UNDERGROUND
I think there are many people who have a strong image of what they look like in UNDERGROUND and their activities as players. On the day of the set, the sight of him climbing up the high grade crisply while saying, “I just cracked my finger the other day lol” was just a word.
I made a challenge that is dynamic and makes me think about moves!
